Seahawks coach Mike Macdonald said Wednesday that Jones was banged up coming out of last weekend&#8217;s win in Carolina, but that he should be able to play.<\/p>\n<p>Safety Coby Bryant is doubtful after missing last week&#8217;s game due to a knee injury.<\/p>\n<p>For the 49ers, five players are listed as questionable, including starting left tackle Trent Williams, who left last weekend&#8217;s win over the Bears with a hamstring injury, and tight end George Kittle, who missed that game with an ankle injury.
